Elbow Room



This morning I noticed that my Persian Shield leaves are always upright when they normally spread to show their beautiful purple and silver markings (as in last year's plant in the photo on the far left).

Though it’s tempting to pack the plants into the space, they really do need some elbow room. So I moved the pots out a bit to give the Persian Shield some room to spread its leaves; that’s the beauty of a container garden—you can rearrange it to suit your design, and the plants’ needs.
